I just attended a VIP meeting at the W hotel in NYC with all the IBFX folks and they are developing a new proprietary trading platform. The codename is BLACKBIRD. It is scheduled for launch Fall 2009. Beta testing will begin in 3-4 weeks and is open only to a select few. The features are like MT4 but have improved vastly. You can transfer pretty much everything from MT4 onto Blackbird, all the ex4 files etc can be converted. The GUI is similar to the Microsoft Office 2007 interfaces eg. Excel/Word etc. You got macros and hotkeys in the works and It is fully customizable. There are features similar to X_Trader for those of you that trade futures on that superior platform such as instant pending order modifications eg. stops and limits already placed and you can modify it on the chart by just click/holding and dragging to a new price. They got OCO's and other conditional orders. Overall I liked what I saw. They will still support MT4 so don't worry IBFX customers. Off to my last day at the Expo. Best Regards.
